Adenocaulon himalaicum Edgew. (Asteraceae).

I am able to identify this plant after a long time due to non familiarity with this species.

It grows in dense forests or along water courses inside forests between 1800-3000m, as a small herb.

Since the images are not very good I have cropped up some areas to show cypsela (fruit) and capitulum.

Photographed near Lata Kopri in Upper Nandakini Valley, Chamoli District, Uttarakhand at about 2600m.
